Saturday, June 12, 2004   Hey wow today was awesome. I got up at like 6:30 ate and then Caitlin came over and did my makeup and then I warmed up and left at around 9:00. My voice teacher didn't come till 5 minutes till I had to go on and she had my music! But it went well, and I did my best - I tried, anyway. So then they announced the finalists and the master class participants and I wasn't in them so I was really discouraged. I watched the class though, and it was pretty interesting. But then I left and ate and came back and the judges weren't back so I went back to work and then my voice teacher calls and goes, "Julie, you won $300! You got the Igelhart Encouragement Award!" I was so happy! So, then I found out Betsy got first and I was really happy for her too! BTW, who got the Jerry Hoover award? I am so proud of all the finalists and master class participants and award recipiants even though I don't know who all the awards went to. Everyone was really good! I was mucho impressed by the talent we have here in the Tri-State. Not that I'm staying or anything. If I had my way, I'd go to Florida State's Musical Theatre Department, but they only take 12 or so new freshman, so I dunno how my chances are. Anywho, drifting off the subject...lalala... Anyway, I thought about it and realized that Betsy (yes, you Betsy) taught me something. You always seem so relaxed and calm about everything - not everything, but like performance wise. Like, for the audition for How to Succeed I had this whole outfit picked out days before and you just came in what you had worn to school that day and got the lead. And at rehearsals for Bang Bang, although you nearly gave Alice a heart attack, you didn't obsess over memorizing your lines and you still were fine. Okay, maybe there is such a thing as cutting it too close (writing the lines on the back of your hand LOL) but you know where that line is. So I think I'll try to, for example, not make it my personal goal to ensure that every cast member knows every dance step. I'm sure that if I don't correct them the show will be just as good! I guess if I just wasn't so up-tight about details and tried to see the whole picture maybe that would help, at least performance-wise. I friek out about contests and auditions and things and you didn't even seem nervous today - until they started announcing finalists, that is. LOL. Anyway, good job and thanks! PLEASE NOTE: This relvalation may not make sense to anyone but myself as of now, being as it's two in the AM! Oh, PS - as of now Evansville is and All-American City! My mom and a bunch of other people went to Atlanta, Georgia and had ten minutes to explain why E-ville should be an all-American city and we won! It will prolley be in tomorrow's paper. Yay mommy! - posted by Jewels @ 11:47 PM Comments: I'm not sure if that was a good wow or a bad wow, but I'll take it. # posted by  Jewels : 9:00 PM   Post a Comment
